Dead Faint & Corsets

Felled Seam on the Right Side

I'm coming down the home stretch on the corset / bodice and I slice the top of my right thumb off cooking dinner last night.

I didn't sleep for the throbbing in my thumb all night. In the morning I get up and clean it in the sink, but as I straighten up to head toward coffee my head starts spinning and I know I'm going to faint. I shuffled as fast as I could to the couch because I didn't want to hit the hardwood floor in a big flop. It wasn't certain but I made it.

I had decided while not sleeping that I could paint with the thumb damaged but not sew today...in case anyone doubted I'm stubborn, I continued sewing...
